Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 145 I am so tired
"Look, are my soldiers mighty?"

Liu Chang and the Hu Ren sat facing each other, Liu Chang pointed to the personal soldiers who were doing daily drills not far away, and asked with a smile.

The Hu Ren looked at these elites who were all wearing armor and fully armed, and couldn't help but nodded, "It is indeed mighty!"

"You don't know, I, the Tang Dynasty, are the most powerful vassal state in the Han Dynasty! Currently, I live in Chang'an temporarily, and I only bring these people with me. In the Tang state, I still have [-] soldiers like this!"

"One hundred thousand?!!"

The Hu man was obviously frightened, and stared at the soldiers in stunned eyes.

"The grain in my granary has no place to store it, and the weapons are even more so, they have to be thrown away after a few days, otherwise they won't be sharp enough, you know. As for iron, I have iron ore everywhere in the Tang Dynasty. Shan, there are millions of people mining every day! I, the people of the Tang Dynasty, can't wait to use iron to make clothes. There is no way, there is too much iron!"

Luan Bu lowered his head and closed his eyes, feeling restless.

"When you came this time, you met the Huns' cavalry?"

The Hu man's face was gloomy, and then he said angrily: "The Huns are really bullying people. We never provoke them, but they don't allow us to trade horses, and they don't trade with us. We have no food, so we can only kill horses to satisfy our hunger. Half of the more than 60 brothers I accompanied died under their looting."

Listening to this hustler pouring out bitterness, Liu Chang pondered for a moment, and said, "That's true! Not long ago, Modun wanted to invade our Tang Dynasty, but was repelled by the Xiangguo! The widow is too young to lead the army in person. Otherwise, we must capture Mao Dun and eradicate this scourge! Give you peace!"

Hu Ren stared at him blankly, "Why do you want to protect us Yuezhi people?"

Liu Chang patted his chest, "Widowers are always wise, and they hate those who bully the weak the most! That's too much bullying, I want to crusade him, not for anything else, but for the morality of the world! Widows have always stood by On the side of justice!"

"Your Majesty!!!", the Hu Ren hurriedly got up, wanting to worship Liu Chang.

"Hey! What are you worshiping?! Don't you treat me as a friend? I treat you as a friend, but you don't treat me as a friend!" Liu Chang feigned anger.

The barbarian hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, I have a humble status and dare not be friends with the king."

"What are you talking about, I, Liu Chang, make friends, and I never look at each other's identity to see if they agree with each other. If they don't agree, it means you are the prime minister of a country, and I will never make friends!"

"Come on, pour a drink!"

Liu Chang took the water and said helplessly: "Father passed away, I can't drink alcohol, I can only use water instead, please don't mind!"

"How could that be?!" The Hu Ren raised his head and drank his drink.

"Hahaha, good brother, don't say anything, you want iron, right? Don't sell the horses, I will give you the grain and iron directly, you can load the supplies on the horse and take them back!"

"No! Your Majesty treats me like this. This time, I will give all the horses to Your Majesty!"

"No!"

"Your Highness, please accept it with a smile! Does Your Highness look down on my friend?!"

Seeing that this hu man was so fooled and crippled by his own king, Luan Bu finally couldn't bear it any longer. Taking the opportunity to pull Liu Chang aside, Luan Bu said sadly, "Your Majesty, Yuezhi can be an ally of the Han. Yes, now the big Han lacks warhorses the most, the two sides can cooperate, and even attack the Xiongnu together, you. Don't be so rude, Yuezhi is now oppressed by the Xiongnu, lacks food, lacks weapons, and people have worked hard to bring the horses, You still want other people's horses for nothing, this is because the small loses the big!"

"Hey, widows have their own plans!"

Liu Chang blinked his eyes, reassuring Luan Bu.

Next, Liu Chang took the barbarian around, took him to see Chang'an, and tried to choose those prosperous places for him to see. The relationship between the two naturally became more intimate until the barbarian was about to leave. Liu Chang just brought him back to the school grounds.

"Good brother, I know your intentions, but this trade is not our private friendship, it's a matter between Yuezhi and my Tang Dynasty."

"I also understand the situation of your Yuezhi. You have been oppressed by the Xiongnu all the year round. This is the brother I dislike the most. I know that you are not here to sell horses for yourself, but for your tribe. I can't let you say anything. You continue to endure hardships, so let me buy the horses this time with twice the supplies you said!"

The Hu Ren was about to speak, but Liu Chang said, "Listen to me! It's not that the widow doesn't treat you as a friend, but because he cares about the Yuezhi people! After you go back, tell your king that I, the Tang Dynasty, are willing to help the Yuezhi. If you need supplies, come to Datang, what you want! I can set up a special city for you in Shangjun, and you can exchange here!"

"Also, if the Huns attack, you can hide in Shangjun for the time being, and I will protect you in the Tang Dynasty!"

After Liu Chang's remarks, the barbarian almost cried.

Before leaving, he said goodbye again and again. He did not want to go back to Yuezhi, but to take Liu Chang's letter to Taiyuan in Datang, and Zhang Xiang would continue to trade with them.

Liu Chang waved his hand and watched from a distance that the Hu man with his horse disappeared in the distance.

Liu Chang's face was a little weird, and he lowered his head.

Luan Bu asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty? Is there something wrong?"

"Well, it's not a big deal. I've only been focusing on making friends with this good brother these days, but I forgot to ask his name. Do you think it would be embarrassing for me to ask him now?"

Luan Bu laughed loudly, "Your Majesty, these days, he has always told the Hu people that they are like brothers, high mountains and flowing water, but you don't even know his name?"

"Cough, the widow made friends and made friends with sincerity. What's the matter with the name?"

When Liu Chang came to the Shang Fang mansion by the river, he heard quarrels from far away.

"Beasts without fathers and kings! The king doesn't want you, but you insist on staying here. Why don't you commit suicide?"

"We don't leave because we don't want to hurt innocent people. You guys have the backbone. Why did you work honestly after being caught here by the king? Why don't you commit suicide?"

"Mozi is an abandoned disciple of Confucianism! He is not worthy of being a saint! You people are abandoned disciples of abandoned disciples, and you are not worthy of being human!"

Chang Liu walked into the mansion, and Qin Mo was concentrating on his work. He took the design drawings that Chang Liu recently handed over to them, and made a bicycle. Yes, it was a bicycle. Because of the lack of horses, Chang Liu wondered whether the current means of transportation could be improved. , He first tried to change the current two-wheeled chariot into a four-wheeled carriage, and then thought of a bicycle.

Bicycles aren't for use on the battlefield, but they're fine for cruising, and the way to make them isn't that difficult.

Qin Mo was working on it honestly. Only those Confucianists and Chu Mo were arguing very fiercely. Some of them had bruised noses and swollen faces, and it was obvious that they had also made a move.Confucianism did not suffer in the face of Mo Xia, and they fought back and forth.

"Hey! What are you arguing about! Still not working!"

Liu Chang shouted loudly, and the two sides stopped arguing just now, and hurried to Qin Mo's side to help fight.

However, Qin Mo hurriedly stopped and came to visit King Tang.

Liu Chang smiled and let them continue to work, before he shouted, "If you can't do it today, you won't be allowed to eat! Except for Qin Mo!"

"You people, all day long, you know empty talk, no one has the ability, look at Qin Mo, do you know how many people can benefit from the waterwheel made by others? Only those who really do practical things are worthy of being called Disciples of the Hundred Schools, how about you? Are you worthy of being with Qin Mo?"

Hearing this sentence, Confucianism and Chu Mo blushed and asked angrily, "Why is your Majesty favoring one over another? If it wasn't for us, Qin Mo might not be able to do it!"

"What? If you're not convinced? Get out if you're not convinced! The widow doesn't support idlers here. Either you will prove to the widow that you are not just idle talkers, or you will admit that you are not worthy of Qin Mo's company, and get out of here!"

Listening to Liu Chang's abuse, Confucianism and Chu Mo continued to work, but they looked at Qin Mo with extremely unkind eyes.

"These eagle dogs!"

Chen Tao scolded, and the Confucianists on the side nodded and said, "They are not as good as you! They have no integrity!"

Liu Chang happily stood aside, eating melons and fruits, his face full of enjoyment.

The widow is really in a hurry. On weekdays, it is not only to benefit the people of Tang, but also to supervise these lazy guys. It is really too hard. I have to eat a fruit to comfort myself!
ps: The update is a bit late. I raised some chickens in the backyard, thinking about making chicken soup for my daughter-in-law in the future. As a result, the door was not closed, and the chickens ran away. The yard was full of chickens, and I was exhausted.
